how does a lock works


karankhanna71: When the right key slides into a pin-and-tumbler lock, the pointed teeth and notches on the blade of the key allow the spring-loaded pins to move up and down until they line up with a track called the shear line. When the pins align with the shear line, the cylinder can turn and the lock will open.

when you close a lock, there is a series of spring loaded pins that moe up and down, and the position of the pins that opens the lock is on the key, when you insert the key into the lock, it pushes these pins up and down to the unlock position, thus opening the lock
